Trivolve is a menace - uploads fake files with F@H stat FAKE

Post by empower »

he uses torrent sites to fold for your team

see these torrent links for evidence - i hope you ban him

i was looking for a no dvd for a game i just bought and found his upload then i discovered it installed a F@H client with his details.

i then searched further, this guy is a public menace.

i reported him to mininova and all his torrents have been removed by the moderators there.

i have reported him to bittorrentmonster hopefully the admins remove him from there too.

heck knows how many other torrent sites he has hit.

shame trivolve shame

F@H is done for good reason and you have used it too boost your ego through faking stats maliciously you are the opposite of what F@H stands for.
